Permission Problem

[Bill vance]

Howdy folks;

I've got a really nasty permission problem in my incomming
email directory.

As root, I can read, write, rename, or delete whatever files
are there.  Users, however, cannot even use ls, cd to it, or
do anything else, when they used to be able to do all the
stuff I mentioned above for root.  None of the email progs
work for them.  I can see the file listings there, but the
users can't.

I've tried chmod, setfacl, mc, and even a script called, "permz",
but to no avail.  I did finally manage to remove the, "sticky bit",
but still. nothing works.

Anyone know how to fix this?
